Undue Haste Scroll Solution:

The scroll reads: "North of Apollonia, I’m next to a life saver. It guides in darkness and fog, and I sit beside it under something that did not heed its warning."

This refers to a lighthouse north of Apollonia on an island. Synchronize with the lighthouse (which also serves as a fast travel point). Dive into the water and swim to the northern end of the island. Search near the wreckage of a sunken ship for your treasure.
